Master Gunner, St James's Park

The appointment of Master Gunner, St James's Park, goes back to 1678 and has generally been held by a senior officer in the Royal Artillery. The early incumbents (known then as the Master Gunner of Whitehall and St James's Park) were responsible for the artillery defence of the Palace of Whitehall and the Palace of Westminster.

There has always been a connection between the monarch and the regiment. The Master Gunner, whose appointment is approved by the monarch, is the link to the regiment. He presides over regimental affairs by heading a committee comprising serving and recently retired senior officers of the regiment which provides guidance, advice and direction on all matters and affairs concerning the past, present and future of the Royal Regiment. Along with his fellow Masters and Chiefs, he provides a report annually to the Chief of the General Staff on regimental affairs. The Master Gunner also maintains the links to Commonwealth Royal Artilleries.

The Master Gunner, St James's Park, should not be confused with that of the rank of Warrant Officer Class 1 (Master Gunner), which is a technical and instructional appointment achieved by some Royal Artillery warrant officers.

Femme artiste

Une femme artiste — une artiste — est une expression qui renvoie à un fait sociologique relativement récent. Si, dès l'Antiquité, les femmes se virent intuitivement associées à la production d'objets artistiques et à de nombreuses disciplines dites classiques comme la peinture, la sculpture, la gravure, ou l’architecture, elles sont restées plus ou moins marginalisées ou peu considérées. Travaillant souvent dans l'anonymat à l'instar de leurs homologues masculins, la plupart...
